I have had my XL Expert for about 2 years and just did my longest ride on it. Using Smart Control I entered the distance of 135 km and 700 meters of ascent and to finish with 10% battery remaining. The temperature range was 7 deg C to about 15. Assistance offered initially was 15% which was ok on the flat but required a bit of effort on the hills. As the ride progressed the assistance crept up in steps of 5%. For quite a while it sat on 20 and 25% which was nice. The last hour or so was at 30% so obviously there was a bit of power to be used up. The battery was on 9% at the ride end. Duration was 7 hr and 20 minutes. I was riding with 2 others on standard bikes. Average speed was 18 km hr. I was quite worn out afterwards but had not done any long distances for the last 7 months. Generally the bike would indicate figures similar to the following. At 1/3 distance 1/4 of the battery was used so it always looked like it would finish easily. Hopefully this is of help to someone. The battery has had about 40 cycles at around 80 km per cycle. Still showing 100 % health.
